Northern Exposure 2 is the third mix album by British DJ duo Sasha & John Digweed. Released on 14 July 1997, it is the second in their Northern Exposure series, preceded by Northern Exposure in 1996 and succeeded by Northern Exposure: Expeditions in 1999. In the United Kingdom, it was released by Ministry of Sound as a double CD package, whereas in the United States, it was on Ultra Records as two separate CDs — a "West Coast Edition" and an "East Coast Edition".
Like its critically acclaimed predecessor, Northern Exposure 2 is a concept album of specially selected tracks to set up two different "journeys", the first is around the East Coast and the second around the West Coast.
